****Update: Congratulations to Debbie McC. who is the winner of the August Giveaway!

Hi Carrie! I love them both, but see myself as a writer closer to Sandra Byrd’s. I write in the same time era and like adding suspense and she did it so well in this one. I signed up to make sure I am signed up, but I may have been already. I am on Facebook more than email. Thank you and many blessings to you!

I love books and both of these are on my TBR list. I also love giveaways. So much fun. I subscribed to your newsletter, though I think I’m already subscribed. Thanks for the giveaway and good luck everyone.

Already a subscriber to your e-mails. I have been wanting to read The Lost Heiress, so I would love to win it and make that happen! I haven’t heard of the other one yet, so that is also being added to my future books to read list. Thanks for the recommendations Carrie!

I’m already a subscriber, which is how I heard about this giveaway. I’d love to win both books! Did you know that Mists of Midnight was the first-place winner of Cover Cafe’s annual cover contest for 2015 for the historical category? Here’s the link showing the top finishers: http://covercafe.com/contest/2015/HST-res15.html

I’m already a subscriber…I’ve heard that Roseanna White is a great author…haven’t read her as of yet, but look forward to sometime soon. Never heard of Sandra Byrd, but always up for a new to me author 🙂 Who can live w/out a book in hand 😉

Hi Carrie! Just got your first email from the giveaway and love your cover and the beautiful flowers. Your title/cover/border picture for this blog is simply breathtaking. Oh, to be there and to see it in person! Looking forward to enjoying future emails and Facebook posts. Thank you for sharing your talent with us, your ravenous readers.

History, mystery, romance, and inspiration – what more could s reader ask for? The fact that these books are both set in England is a plus. I hope to visit England sometime and see in person many of the places I’ve read about. Now there’s an idea for a giveaway! Just kidding… Thanks for the opportunity to win these books! I am already a newsletter subscriber, and really enjoy your writing, Carrie.

I am a new subscriber and am not familiar with these authors. But by the long list of replies, it appears that lots and lots of people are familiar with your books! I love historical fiction especially a series. Thanks for introducing me to new authors. I look forward reading Shine Like the Dawn and the giveaways, especially if I win (fat chance–too many entries.)

I just got your newsletter with the cover reveal for your new book Shine Like The Dawn – it’s beautiful! And I’d love to win the 2 books for this month. The Lost Heiress is on my list of books I want to read. Thanks for giving us all a chance Carrie!

I love have read The Lost Heiress and loved it!!! It may be one of my new favorite books. I have not read Mist of Midnight, but it sounds excellent! Thank you for the chance to win one of these books. I am signed up for your newsletter.

I love Roseanna M White’s books I am so looking forward to reading this one! I have not read Sandra Byrd’s book, But It looks really good! I love this time Period, It is my favorite, actually!! Love the cover of your new book!!

I am “judging” these books by their covers and I “judge” them to be the kind of books I want to read! Thank you for the opportunity to win one! Your newest book, Carrie also looks like a book that will go on my “must read” list!

I have loved Sandra Byrd’s mysteries! The tone of her books reminds me of the Victoria Holt books I devoured in high school. Thanks for the opportunity to win these! I haven’t read Roseanna White – yet – but would enjoy the chance to do so.

I’m a long-time fan and subscriber! Both of these books look yummy … but “Mist of Midnight” *looks* like it has more intrigue . . . and I do so love a good suspenseful romance! LOL! Thanks for offering, Carrie! 🙂

I’m already subscribed. I’ve never had the chance to read any of Roseanna’s books, but I’ve heard that they’re wonderful! I just finished reading one of Sandra’s called Roses Have Thorns. Also an excellent read!

Hi, Carrie!! I’m already a newsletter subscriber. The cover of your coming release is beautiful, as is the pic of your vase of flowers. You have quite a talent for flower arranging!! Thank you for the giveaway opportunity – so looking forward to meeting you in Nashville next week!!

The Mist of Midnight sounds intriguing, and I greatly appreciate the chance to receive it here, as do so many others! I have T he Lost Heiress and will be reading it soon. i am now reading Without Warning, by Lynette Eason. It is helping take my mind of recovering from a root canal!

Two books that I would love to read! I have not gotten the chance, though. The Lost Heiress is a book that I have been meaning to read…. I was just waiting until it went on sale and I had enough change to buy it. I have become a subscriber and I wanted to thank you for your amazing books and the great giveaway! Bless you!

Hi..I am a happy subsciber and I love going to the Farmers Market as well always come away with something although we have a huge garden that is overtaken with weeds due to all the rain. My husband has to take care of the huge garden as I am disabled and in a scooter due to a nerve disease but never fear I have a raised garden. It has 2 tomato plants and several zuccini plants. although i had 1 zucchini plant that was doing great till we had rain and then heat then 3 others popped up 2 died and now 1 looks to be doing well big yellow flowers. My tomato does not have 1 on it so weird but my heirloom purple tomato has several green tomatoes. I also love to purchase the flowers at the market as they are ones I don’t have in my garden or along our driveway my husband does bring in flowers every once and awhile but a bunch of fresh ones from market are wonderful to have on my counter. I haven’t read either of the books i sure hope they are print if so I would love to read and then review them on a few sites. Take care and have a good rest of the summer!

I'm reading the devotional, Ordinary Graces, by Lucinda Secrest McDowell, and highly recommend it. Using The Beautiful Wife by Sandy Ralya for small group. And we're working our way through the Gospel of John on Sunday mornings at Calvary Chapel Living Hope.
